It's finally here...SURGERY DAY today!

My time has finally come. I'm packed and ready to leave for the hospital in a few hours to have my band to sleeve revision surgery later today. I'm excited, but also quite nervous (which I'm sure is normal).

If you would, please keep me in your thoughts and prayers.

Thanks everyone!!

I'm so excited for you! You have been such a support for me and others.

I did mine Tuesday and had a rough one and a half day due to fever. I can't believe how well I am doing! No nausea or not much pain. My husband even commented!

I can't wait to hear from you! Keep us all posted on how you feel :).

Good luck sweetie!!

I just weighed and took measurements and I have lost 18 pounds and 19 inches (from waist, hips, thighs, knee, calf, chest, upper arm, forearm, and "bust") since I started the 2-week pre-op diet!! So excited to start seeing the scale moving down, down, DOWN!!!

band to sleeve revision surgery today

@@Fatty McFatster

sorry you had problems with your band :wacko:

in my "biased" opinion - the sleeve is the greatest!!!

having revision surgery shows your determination

you are brave enough to go through MORE surgery

you want to get it right/successful with weight loss

you are starting all over

most of the rules with lapband are same/similar to sleeve???

you are a winner, but i'll save you a seat on the "loosers" bench!!! ;)

good luck

speedy recovery

I'm out of surgery and recovery. Very nauseous and in a good amount of pain. Other than that things went great.

Thanks to all that offered their support, thoughts, well wishes, and prayers!!! They have meant a lot to me!!
